Public API ============ Package definition for your current version of Squeak are found using the following path.
For SystemVersion Squeak3.7
Packages findPath -> {PackagesSqueak37 . PackagesDev . PackagesBeta} *the default is #current Packages current findPath -> {PackagesSqueak37 . PackagesDev . PackagesBeta} Packages dev findPath {PackagesDev. PackagesSqueak37 . PackagesBeta} Packages beta findPath {PackagesBeta . PackagesSqueak37 . PackagesDev}
Packages current load: 'Seaside'. + Packages beta load: 'Seaside'. - Packages beta named: 'Seaside'.
or
(Packages current named: 'Seaside') run. " or runQuietly, runStepping, runLogging" (Packages beta named: 'Seaside') run.
multiples:
Packages current load: #('Seaside' 'Magma' 'Logging')
Run-variants =========
#runStepping , - presents a confirm/debug dialog before each action. #run - default. #runQuietly - auto-confirms any SakeConfirm dialogs. #runLogging - Writes any SakeStop warnings to self log.
Unloading ======== Unloading comes in two variants.
Each package task loaded by Sake/Packages is remembered in the 'provided' list If you perform:
Packages unload: 'Seaside' .
Packages unloadStepping: 'Seaside' .
Then the 'historical' unload scripts are used, as defined when the original load tasks were run.
If instead you perform:
(Packages current named: 'Seaside') unload runStepping.
Then the most recently defined unload script will be run.
Note: If packages such as "Magma server" and "Magma client" provides "Magma", then
Packages unload: 'Magma'.
Will unload whichever of the two are loaded. === Misc notes...
Universes are using 'instance side' task definition, so the task extensions mechanism does not work in this context.
If a package appears in Packages under an obscure name, it can tell the PackageInfo instance what name was used to load it via metadata at mcName:
If a package has a version number with a '+' after it, then 'Packages upgrade' will always attempt to load the latest code, leaving Monticello to determing if there are any code changed that need to be applied. + + To generate all of the methods based upon universes definitions: + + Packages taskGenerateAllUniverses run. + or + Packages taskGenerateAll run.! - !
